Global luxury market continues to grow

The worldwide luxury market was estimated at €1 trillion in 2016, with an average annual growth of 4%. Over a six-year period (2010-2016), High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI) grew in number by 52%, in addition to their wealth, which increased by 49%. The Asian and North America regions are primary drivers of the growth. 1 In addition to the luxury market and customer base growth, the world has changed, and the pace of change is continuing to grow. In the previous period luxury travel has been growing faster (+4,5%) than overall travel (+4,25%) and the forecasted growth rate of luxury travel is also higher (+6,2%) than overall travel (+4,8%). 2 This growth has been followed by an increase in competition, due to both an increase in the number of luxury properties as well as improvements in the service delivery to luxury guests in existing operations.

Together, Horwath HTL and Soul Luxury are helping

clients navigate this fast-changing environment and have decided to combine our project experience and insights to rethink New Luxury in Hospitality".

Luxury customer mindset is shifting

The market for luxury hospitality is growing at a steady pace, but it remains lucrative. With 700 thousand luxury rooms in the global pipeline 1 , increased guest mobility and a flood of quality online marketing, the competitive landscape is intensifying. Today, luxury hospitality is under the influence of an evolutionary shift. Fast technological advances drive society to develop at an unprecedented rate, impacting the human condition as never before. Hoteliers are facing a critical challenge that will be the significant battleground for growing the HNWI market in the long-term - how to continuously deliver on the expectations of a shifting customer mindset. While HNW travellers still expect every detail of their travel to be taken care of - the thread count of their linens, the temperature of their plunge pools - what is new is the aspiration behind the journey, not just experiences, but transformational experiences, self-actualisation, more profound meaning and sincere human connections. Going to a spa and moving from one room to another doesn"t create a narrative for genuinely transformational experiences. This shift is triggered by 2 key factors:

1. Changes in lifestyle habits:

New and deeper awareness of personal wellbeing

is shaping a trend referred to as health is the new luxury". Globally there has been a substantial shift towards stronger self-consciousness both in terms of leading a healthier lifestyle as well as minding the surroundings (both social and ecological), true sustainability.

Key for guest retention is how they have felt

throughout the stay, with an emphasis on emotional resonance. Creating emotional connection is not something new, but the hospitality industry has started to target emotions more efficiently, and actively manage the customer journey. Emotional value enhancers (EVE) are defined, as they need to be unique to each brand and delivered continuously along each guest journey. Why should your clients care and how can you touch their lives are the fundamental questions to be asked. As guests are becoming more demanding, the average expected standard for their future stays has risen significantly, and guests even expect their unspoken" needs to be fulfilled. Digital technology is increasingly used to address this challenge. Soon, advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) will enable comprehensive tracking of client behaviour.

2. Digitization:

The crucial role of digital technology in today"s society causes a paradox of connected disconnection which attempts to reconcile two opposites: Digital intensity and the need for a digitally aversive experience.

The tech-obsessed always-on culture surrounds

customers, requiring state-of-the-art digital solutions.

On the other hand, the possibility to completely

disconnect becomes a privilege of its own. In a future of 5G mobile networks, we will see more offline or wi-fi free areas within hotels as well as a total digital free hotel experiences. Balancing between these two opposites and choosing the level of focus is becoming strategically important.
